Chukotka Autonomous Okrug

Chukotka Autonomous Okrug is a place far away in the north of Russia where a lot of snow and ice is found. It is a special area where people who live there can make decisions on their own without asking anyone else from another part of Russia. They have their own government that takes care of their needs and helps them with things like hospitals, schools, and roads. The people who live in Chukotka Okrug are called Chukchi and they are very good at fishing, hunting, and skiing because of the cold weather. They have a unique culture that makes them different from other parts of Russia. Even though it is far away, people from other parts of the world visit Chukotka Okrug to see the beautiful scenery and learn about the Chukchi people.
